JIMEK's Orchestral Retelling Of Hip-Hop History Is A Sight To Be Seen, Sound To Be Heard

Alright, we're waving our late pass on this, but Polish composer JIMEK's absolutely gorgeous orchestral compilation of historic hip-hop cuts is a must see and hear type of joint. The video finds maestro leading a massive symphonic ensemble, who after two full concerts decided to close out the show with this sprawling medley, touching virtually every icono-cut under the Stankonian sun. From Kendrick Lamar's "Swimming Pools" to Tupac's "Dear Mama" to A Tribe Called Quest's "Electric Relaxation" to Pharoahe Monch's "Simon Says" to The Beastie Boys' "Sure Shot," many, if not all, of your favorites are accounted for here, peppered with more commercial hits like "Crazy In Love" and "Get Your Freak On" amongst a slew of others.
